PRODUCT: All Cirrus Design Corporation (Cirrus) Model SF50 (Vision Jet) airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule; request for comments.

SUMMARY: This AD was sent previously as an emergency AD to all known U.S. owners and operators of these airplanes.

This AD requires replacing the angle of attack (AOA) sensors with improved AOA sensors.

COST: The FAA estimates that this AD affects 99 airplanes of U.S. registry. Operators may incur the following costs in order to comply with this AD:

  • Replace the AOA sensor: 1.25 work-hours × $85 per hour = $106.25. Parts: $16,250. Cost per airplane: $16,356.25.
